If you could read my Mind Traditional
[G] If you could read my mind, love,
[F] What a tale my thoughts could tell.
[G] Just like an old time movie,
[F] 'Bout a ghost from a wishing well.
[G] In a castle d[G7]ark,
Or a f[C]ortress strong, with c[D]hains upon my f[Em]eet.
You k[C]now that ghost is m[G]e,
And I[C] will never b[G]e set free,
As l[C]ong as I'm a g[D]host that you can't s[G]ee.
If you could read my mind, love,
What a tale your thoughts could tell.
Just like a paperback novel,
The kind the drugstores sell.
Then you reached the part
Where the heartaches come, the hero would be me.
But heroes often fail.
And you won't read that book again,
Because the ending's just too hard to take.
[G]I'd walk aw[G7]ay
Like a m[C]ovie star, who gets b[D]urned in a three-way s[Em]cript.
E[C]nter number t[G]wo:
A m[C]ovie queen to p[G]lay the scene
Of b[C]ringing all the g[D]ood things back to m[G]e
But f[C]or now, love, l[G]et's be real.
I n[C]ever thought, I could f[G]eel this way.
And I've g[C]ot to say that I j[D]ust don't get it.
I[C] don't know where w[G]e went wrong,
But the f[C]eeling's gone, and I j[D]ust can't get it b[G]ack.
If you could read my mind ...
But for now, love ...
